“Inappropriate Friends”: What Prince Andrew Was Really Asking Ghislaine Maxwell (12/25/25)

In filings in 2023, former Jes Staley asked a federal judge in Manhattan to dismiss JPMorgan Chase’s lawsuit against him related to the bank’s handling of its relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. JPMorgan sued Staley seeking to recover compensation and losses tied to two lawsuits the bank faces over its work with Epstein, alleging Staley misled the bank about Epstein’s character and conduct and failed to address internal concerns about keeping Epstein as a client. In response, Staley argued that the bank’s claims lacked both legal and factual basis, and he urged the judge to throw out the case because the bank was unfairly trying to pin blame on him for broader institutional decisions made by JPMorgan. Staley specifically accused the bank of using him as a “public relations shield” to deflect criticism and responsibility for its own alleged failures in managing its relationship with Epstein rather than focusing on substantive legal issues.A federal judge later denied Staley’s motion to dismiss, saying the case would proceed and that explanations would follow in written orders. Staley’s defense centered on the idea that JPMorgan could not plausibly hold him solely responsible for decisions made by the bank years earlier, especially when there were no clear allegations that he directly facilitated Epstein’s criminal activities or knew of them firsthand. His contention was that JPMorgan was attempting to deflect scrutiny from its own policies and practices by placing him at the center of high-profile litigation, turning him into a scapegoat for reputational purposes. The legal dispute was part of broader litigation tied to Epstein’s network and the bank’s role in enabling his financial activities.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

In September 2023, a federal judge in Manhattan granted former JPMorgan executive Jes Staley permission to depose one of the unnamed Jeffrey Epstein accusers who had sued JPMorgan Chase & Co. alleging the bank benefited from Epstein’s crimes. The ruling allowed Staley’s legal team to question the woman—identified in filings only as Jane Doe—in person in the city where she lives, despite her previously expressed concerns about facing what her attorneys described as potentially intrusive questioning. This order came in the context of a broader settlement between JPMorgan and Epstein’s victims, and situated within the ongoing pretrial litigation over the bank’s liability and Staley’s role in the bank’s relationship with Epstein.The judge’s decision followed arguments from Staley’s lawyers that questioning the accuser was necessary to challenge key factual assertions about what she knew and when, which bear on claims against Staley personally in JPMorgan’s third-party complaint. Staley’s request was distinct from and in addition to his own scheduled deposition in the broader litigation involving the U.S. Virgin Islands and other plaintiffs, and the judge’s order set logistical parameters for how that deposition of the accuser would be conducted before fact discovery closed.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The Palm Beach police report reads like the opening chapter of a crime saga everyone wishes had ended sooner. In painstaking detail, investigators laid out how Jeffrey Epstein operated a revolving-door abuse scheme out of his Palm Beach mansion—recruiting underage girls, often as young as 14, under the guise of “massages,” then paying them cash after sexual assaults. The report makes clear this was not a one-off or a misunderstanding; it documents dozens of consistent victim statements, matching descriptions of the house, the routine, the money, and Epstein’s behavior. Detectives noted the sheer volume of victims, the striking similarities in their accounts, and the methodical nature of the abuse—painting a picture of a predator who acted with confidence, repetition, and a belief he would never face consequences.What makes the report so haunting is not just what Epstein did, but how unmistakably obvious it all was. The Palm Beach Police Department concluded there was overwhelming probable cause for felony sex crimes, emphasizing that Epstein’s wealth, influence, and legal maneuvering stood in sharp contrast to the credibility and courage of the girls who came forward. The document reads less like a mystery and more like a warning flare—one that spelled out the scope of the abuse long before the world was forced to confront it. In black and white, the report shows that the truth was there early, detailed, and undeniable—raising the uncomfortable question of why it took so long for justice to even begin catching up.to contact me:bobbycapuccisource:Epstein-Docs.pdf (documentcloud.org)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.
